Posting on the Facebook group DIY on a Budget Official, Kim Smith explained how she bought rose gold spray and silver adhesive from Amazon with the intention of just updating her fridge.

But she loved the end results so much that she ended up redecorating her washing machine and dishwasher too.

Kim gushed: "After upcycling the fridge with rose gold spray paint and silver fablon, I got a bit carried away and decided to try it on my dishwasher and washing machine.

"I know it's maybe not to everyone's taste but I love them. They're much better than they were at least!"

After covering the surface of the appliances in the £10 grey adhesive, Kim then sprayed a coat of the rose gold spray over selected areas for a stylish finish.

What's more, you can pick up the bargain spray for just £10 on Amazon.

Although it takes 24 hours to set properly, you can layer coats of the spray every 30 minutes and it takes just 20 minutes to touch dry.

Then all the mum needed to do was write over the areas she'd covered in the rose gold spray - including the washing machine settings and dishwasher temperatures.
